[PATCH] dma-buf: heaps: Clear CMA pages with clear_page()

by Linus Walleij

clear_page() translates into memset(*p, 0, PAGE_SIZE) on some architectures, but on the major architectures it will call an optimized assembly snippet so use this instead of open coding a memset().

I'd like to annotate a page to DEPT_PAGE_REGFILE_CACHE when the page starts to be associated with a page cache for fs data. 2. And I'd like to annotate a page to DEPT_PAGE_BDEV_CACHE when the page starts to be associated with meta data of fs e.g. super block. 3. Lastly, I'd like to reset the annotated value if any, that has been set in the page, when the page ends the assoication with either page cache or meta block of fs e.g. freeing the page. Can anyone suggest good places in code for the annotation 1, 2, 3? It'd be totally appreciated. :-) Byungchul > Introduce APIs to set each page's usage properly and make sure not to > interact between at least between DEPT_PAGE_REGFILE_CACHE and > DEPT_PAGE_BDEV_CACHE.
